What is Authentic Encounter?

Everyone is made in the image and likeness of God. He (Joe) is made in the image and likeness of God. This reality stays as a foundation.

When he lived and breathed this reality when he communicated with others from another country, he found it had an extremely positive effect on the effectiveness of the communication that then followed.

It didn't need to be spoken of at all. The other person's beliefs did not have anything to do with it. It simply depended upon him (Joe) knowing this truth in consciousness and for him to express out from this knowingness and the effect would be felt by everyone in the communication and it would then unfold in a much better and more effective way.

He experienced this reality for many years and that is why he created the term "Authentic Encounter" and then wrote the book, "Authentic Encounter in Intercultural Communication."

He got his M.A. degree in 1985 in Intercultural Communication with the emphasis being Authentic Encounter in Intercultural Communication.

"I had already been announced dead by the doctors in charge. They were making plans to drain my blood. My wife, Dr. Angela Barnett, told the doctors to leave the room or they would have law suits for the next twenty years. Dr. Angela Barnett placed earphones on my ears and turned on the Eternal Life Album that we had created together six months earlier.

My wife, Dr. Angela Barnett, then did Spiritual Healing work for me 24 hours a day for a few weeks in my hospital room.

I came back to Earth, and began telling my story of where I had been and all of the entities I met on the way back. I kept talking in my sleep, like I was dreaming out loud for several weeks.

Finally, when I woke up, there were three angels sitting on the bed next to me. They said to me, turn around and thank your wife for bringing you back. We tried and we couldn't do it. It was her, and her alone who brought you back."Joe Barnett, M.A.
